Gore ran well against the bears in the past, but he also has coughed up the ball twice in only 3 games against the bears. I feel like the bears will limit Gore to 70yds on about 25 carries with the way our defense has beasted this season. 49ers LBs scare the hell out of me they are freaks that can keep up with some WRs and hit hard as hell.
Gores stats vs the bears
2005- 14 carries, 55yds
2006- 12 carries, 111yds, 1 fumble
2009- 25 carries, 104yds, 1TD, 1 fumble, 4 REC 21yds

Gonna post this here now since no one will bother looking at the old thread...

Aight guys, here's a mouthful...

I'm debating whether to deal Gore or Mathews as I currently have four quality rbs (Trent, Mathews, Gore, Leshoure) in a .5 ppr league where you only need two (no flex). Instead, we have three wrs and I can obviously use an upgrade behind AJ and Amendola.

Long story short, I'm debating whether to deal Gore or Mathews for a wr option between Wallace, Decker, Demaryius Thomas, Jordy Nelson and Miles Austin.

Now Mathews has mostly been a disappointment thanks to his lack of use in third down and goal line situations, but I worry that SF will start resting Gore more by the end of the season and Mathews has an easier schedule so I'm still not sure who to deal and I was hoping someone could recommend which I should deal AND give a priority out of those five receivers and/or which I shouldn't even deal for.

Out of those WRs I'd want Thomas, Decker, Wallace, Nelson, Austin in that order.

I don't think you'd be able to get the first 3 for Mathews, he's been downright awful this year so far. I'd probably lead towards dealing Mathews first, even though your concerns w/ Gore are valid. I just don't want any part of that SD offense and you know the attempts will be there in SF, they just may not go to Gore all the time.

edit: for value context Gore/Thomas for Ray Rice just went down in my +1 ppr league. I love the deal on the Gore/Thomas side.
